Good gracious, did the writer of Lie to Me have an epiphany today? Or maybe she got replaced by a writer with a bone-deep understanding of narrative drive and character consistency? Whatever the reason, episode 9 of LTM was DAEBAK from start to finish. It felt like a whole new drama. Not that I didn’t already love LTM to pieces, … Continue reading →
One of the most interminable weeks of our lives is finally over, and Lie to Me episode 9 is either going to make or break our insatiable craving for this drama. Will the drama go downhill? Will people refuse to admit the truth or talk to each other? Will Koala want to grab her pitchfork or will Koala grab Ki Joon for a … Continue reading →
Simply loving two out of the six May dramas is already leaving me woefully neglecting one on behalf of the other. Best Love continues to roll in the awesome, but having the OTP issues being external rather than internal leaves me less worried about Ae Jung and Jin getting together. I worry about big hammer of doom, but I know … Continue reading →
LOL, I feel like I’m entertaining a mob of bloodthirsty pitchfork wielding protectors of Ah Jung. Which I’m all for, don’t get me wrong. Though right now Ki Joon deserves a slap at most, so everyone put down your sharp pointy weapons. I’ll explain briefly at the end of this post where I think the writer should take Lie to … Continue reading →
After a tumultuous early part of the year, when Wu Zun changed management agencies and rumors abounded that Fahrenheit was disbanding, looks the boys have put it all behind them and have been busy with a slew of promotional activities together in the last two months. Everyone has their individual projects – Zun is promoting the movie Da Wu Sheng with … Continue reading →
The video preview for episode 9 of Lie to Me is out. I have to run but wanted to quickly post it. Spazz away. Just so you know, I’ve dug a huge-ass hole in my backyard, and when I come back I am going to toss Hyun Ki Joon in it. Man be pissing me OFF.

The first teaser photos are out for the upcoming Beautiful Spy (Korean title Spy Myung Wol) starring Eric and Han Ye Seul.

Okay, I’m not going to add a new post anytime there are new spoiler pictures released for this week’s Lie to Me (episodes 9 and 10). As such, I’ll add an edit note on top of this post with a time stamp anytime I get any new updates. Capish? But if the video preview comes out I’ll make a new … Continue reading →
Since I started watching K-dramas, this might be the third time I’m living through a bona-fide online K-drama watching phenomenon. The first was Boys Before Flowers in early 2009. Next came You’re Beautiful in late 2009. A few dramas got really close to be a drama crack craze, such as Sungkyunkwan Scandal and Secret Garden. Some just had a good-sized and devoted … Continue reading →
This weekend sees the premiere of a new Sunday night TW-idol drama – Love Keeps Going with Mike He and Cyndi Wang, which is the successor drama to the just completed airing Sunny Happiness with Janine Chang and also Mike He. Mike and Cyndi have been making the promotional rounds all week (see above), and wherever they go, a loaf … Continue reading →
They are so insanely cute together I might go into sugar shock. Upcoming MBC drama Heartstrings (formerly known as I’ve Fallen for You and Festival) released the first official couple poster shoot for Jung Yong Hwa and Park Shin Hye. The concept was a photobooth to capture their youth and spontaneity. These pictures are wonderful – I find them creative, apropos, and unique. Bravo … Continue reading →
I like to think my Feng Feng is not being forced to do this project by his Anhui management team, and that he actually wants to do it. But Anhui Television owes me if it turns out to be a chemistry-less mismatch. My Li Yi Feng is currently in Taiwan doing costume fittings and pre-production work for Happy Michelin Kitchen (幸福三顆星), … Continue reading →
It’s a sure sign that Summer is here (for the Northern Hemisphere at least) and love is in the air when suddenly K-entertainment explodes in one week with news that 3 separate star couples have gone public. Not 1, not 2, but 3! First up we have my sweetie pie Nam Sang Mi and her Life is Beautiful co-star Lee … Continue reading →
